Daniel,

Last week, the government was hit with billions in automatic spending cuts, known as the "sequester." Republicans are taking advantage of this moment and are proposing to replace "sequester" cuts with cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid benefits.

 

In response, PCCC activists are teaming up with Rep. Alan Grayson and progressive allies to stand strong against benefit cuts!

Want to hear the latest from Grayson directly? We're holding a national briefing tomorrow with him and others -- to update you and reporters about the momentum of our campaign to protect key benefits. We'll also answer your questions. 

Can you join our national briefing tomorrow -- Wednesday -- at 12pm Eastern? RSVP to join by phone or online.

Over 200,000 Americans have signed on as citizen supporters of the letter from Reps. Alan Grayson (D-FL) and Mark Takano (D-CA) promising to vote against benefit cuts. On the briefing, we'll update you about others in Congress have joined them. 

 

National Organization for Women President Terry O'Neill will join our national briefing tomorrow, and make a major announcement. 

Rep. Mark Takano will join too! And we'll update folks on signature-delivery events to congressional offices around the nation in support of the Grayson-Takano letter.

 

You won't want to miss our national briefing with Alan Grayson and others tomorrow -- Wednesday, March 6 -- at 12pm Eastern! RSVP here to join by phone or online.

 

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
